Multi-edit Tool

App Manager allows you to multi-edit configuration items from the same screen.

In order to start using the multi-edit tool, click the Menu options in the explorer.

This will create a widget with steps to create the multi-edit query you need.

Item Type

This window shows you the available items for you to multi-edit.

Nodes: Server level configuration settings for each of your installs.

Apps: App level settings for the applications installed on each node.

Objects: Configuration objects that each app requires to operate.

Node Selection

This window will only become available if you have selected to multi-edit Apps or Objects. It allows you to select what Nodes to query from.

The selection can grow quite large based on all of your nodes. Make sure to utilize the Select Filtered feature to speed your process.

Finish

Before you Generate the Multi-edit screen, you will be given a summary of the query you have selected to process.

The time it takes to generate the final screen will depend on the amount of nodes and item types that you have selected.

Editing

The tool will generate a view similar to the following image.

Controls

Save Item

You can click the save button on any row to save only the settings for that item.

Save all

This button will allow you to save all settings changed in the current view. This button is also available in the save column header.

Customize Viewed Properties

This will open a window where you will be able to pick and choose what columns to view.

The smaller the filter, the easier it is to see what you are editing.

Toggle Properties View

This button is also available in every column header. It allows you to expand or minimize the view style of a property. This feature allows you to maximize the space in use on the screen.

For example a file type property.

The fully expanded property looks like this:

The minimized version looks like this:

Clicking the edit button on the minimized view will pop the full view on a temporary modal.
